Hello everyone, I am really interested in the rogue, I mean either this a altima or a sentra is what im considering best options for the money.

However I test drove the car on City Streets the car has a lot of vibration to it, also I had the ac on and stereo off and you can hear either muffler noise or engine noise, not very appealing anyone experience the same? is this a normal thing?? help with opinions anyone please

thanks, Alen

I'm hoping it was just a fluke thing with the one you drove. My car is quieter than any other car I've owned. Maybe test drive another!

I agree with poconosmama test drive another. I certainly have no significant vibrations in my Rogue at 4100 miles.

If its a major problem and you bring it in a 3rd time, under NJ law, the car is a lemon...

Test drive another, I do notice road noise especially when the road is wet.I get no vibration. You do hear engine noise when you take off especially if you romp on it. The CVT transmission is smooth, but I do notice the engine noise more because of it.

I notice some shaking in my SL AWD when there's a slight downgrade but you still have your foot on the gas so the engine is pushing. When the RPM drops to around 1300-1500 and still pushing a little power it's a bit uncomfortable

My friend has an 07 CRV and it's FUGLY as hell! plus the quality isn't there. The interior is fragile and the CRV just doesn't feel as solid as the Rogue or as well built. I test drove two Rogues and both didn't have a vibration or anything,your post sounds like spam like that LMN guy,you and him probably are CRV owners that are just jealous that they didn't get a Rogue,but had to settle with a CRV. The CRV is a minivan and the 4WD system in it is pathetic it couldn't even climb a small hill! take it to a different dealer to get the vibration fixed,if you even have a vibration that is. Watch this video on the CRV,also ignore the Subaru propaganda and bias and focus on the just the small bit on the CRV. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7dVFY5CxT0
